The Thera-Band Resistance Band Dispenser meets a number of unmet medical industry and physical therapy needs. The Thera-Band Resistance Band Dispenser addresses growing concerns about staph infections in hospitals, nursing homes, and athletic team settings. Providing pre-wrapped bands to individuals helps limit cross-contamination between sick patients who otherwise would be sharing exercise equipment within a healthcare facility. The bands are a go-to by physical therapists because of its versatility and portability. Patients use the bands during appointments to learn proper form and strengthen muscles and then take the bands home to continue therapy in between visits.

There are five colors denoting the resistance levels which make for easy identification as well as show improvement as user moves up in color.
